RyeUnlike bourbon, rye whiskey can be made anywhere in the world. But if made in the US, the mash bill recipe must be at least 51% rye and it must be aged in new, charred oak barrels with no age requirement. Elsewhere, the rye whiskey will be made keeping the country of origin's rules regarding the recipe and minimum aging.

Tasting Notes
"The nose offers licorice, rye spice, caraway seeds, and agave syrup along with apples in multiple forms: crisp and waxy-skinned, alongside mushy and baked. The palate has a bitter tinge with burnt toast, orange pith, and grapefruit zest, as well as clover honey and tannic oak. The finish is short, with anise, a floral punch of violets and potpourri, and dulce de leche. "
